"Change of scenery": Michael Owen states his prediction for RB Leipzig v Liverpool

Liverpool will be in action for their Champions League Round 16 clash against RB Leipzig on Tuesday night. Reds are currently struggling in the Premier League, sitting in 6th place in the league table, while they will be hoping to progress to the next round in the European top tier. Ahead of the match, pundit Michel Owen has given his prediction. He has backed Jurgen Klopp's side to secure a 1 - 2 win over the rivals. "Liverpool fans will be hoping the return of Champions League football will spark their side back into form after an underwhelming run domestically," he said. "Saturday’s loss away to Leicester will have been a hard one to take, especially after taking the lead in the second half. "Leipzig have only lost one home game all season, so the Germans may feel a bit aggrieved that this will be played at a neutral venue in Budapest. "That can only benefit Liverpool, and I think back on European soil, it may be the change of scenery the players need. So, I’m backing the Reds to bounce back in what should be an entertaining match."
